....10. Name the one time that all 20 wickets taken by a side in a test match were taken by bowlers whose surnames began with "C".....

Easy - when you're watching certain teams - every bowler becomes

WTF did you let that qunt get a wicket!

Indeed. How can that bowling attack take 20 wickets, and yet he didn't get one?

That means I reckon I've got nine sorted. The other one means a long look at FC stats...

I haven't had time to research it but my guesses would be a Caddick, Croft, Cork attack or some abomination like Cairns, Chatfield, Coney and Crowe.

The Zatellite concerned is OK, still awaiting verdict on whether car will be repaired or written off.

They're old enough to drive already!!!!!!!???
Shit, you poor bugger. No wonder you're a little touchy at times.

Glad the brat's alright, but.

I'm having fun with driving lessons.

A mate once told me that the surest way to get a divorce is to teach your wife to drive.

Pity teaching your kids to drive doesn't guarantee they'll move out and stop sponging off you . . .

Cheers GiP.

Had to research most of them, and only got the last one when chatting with a couple of blokes at rugby training last night. He could remember the surname. Wikipedia did the rest.

Zat - do you still play rugby?...

Oh god no, I manage teams in the local club comp and at rep level. The Lady Empress would kill me if I put the thousand-dollar-shoulder at risk on the rugby field.

And my answers have been submitted.
